Are there any military bases in Egypt?

Question

I was just wondering what some reasons for someone moving to Egypt would be that are U.S. Military related.

Answer 1

Egypt is one of the most appreciated allies of the US in the Middle East though it does not come on the top of the list as Israel and Saudi Arabia come before it.

Yes there is American Military presence on the Northern Coasts of Egypt in the form of a naval military base.

Answer 2

So far as I know the only U.S. military presence the United States has in Egypt are the guards at the U.S. Embassy, but there might also be military personnel serving as advisors to the Egyptian military.

Answer 3
